Objective: To explore the influence of sodium ferulate on proliferation of HSC T6 and synthesis of collagen in rats. Methods: The effects of sodium ferulate on proliferation of HSC T6 were observed by MTT colorimetric assay and synthesis of collagen were observed by the incorporation of 3H proline. Results: Sodium ferulate inhibited the proliferation of HSC T6 and synthesis of collagen in a dose dependent manner. Conclusion: Sodium ferulate can prevent HSC T6 cell proliferation and collagen synthes...
